Today Dutch singer-songwriter and Eurovision Song Contest winner Duncan Laurence releases his new single Rest In Peace. Rest In Peace is the follow-up to Electric Life and Skyboy, the first two singles from Laurence’s forthcoming album Skyboy,
“Rest in Peace is a song about giving someone, who’s breaking your heart by walking in and out of your life, a simple ultimatum: love me or let me rest in peace” Laurence explains, “I was a ghost, a prisoner in the home we built together. Came and went as you pleased. It slowly broke my heart. So I made a simple ultimatum: love me or set me free. Love me… or let me rest in peace”
Rest In Peace is written by Duncan Laurence together with his husband, songwriter Jordan Garfield, and Stephen Wrabel, Eric Lévi, and Sam de Jong.
It was only last week Duncan Laurence released his song Anything to celebrate his wedding to Jordan earlier this month in Stockholm.
